Bug#398198: A fresh package...
Kumar,
I hope you had a look at our effort to package vala, since it has been reviewed by at least 3 people several times..
I also have a difficult environment here, but this is not a reason to push a single-men effort package so fast.
Loic, I still don't know how to use collab, and what would have been the next steps...
Mathias had also stopped working on packaging when you have pushed in on collab, probably for the same reason.
Sorry to not being as Debian fluent as you. Mathias&me would have been much happier if you have joined earlier to help us.
I'll try to follow anyway,
regards,

Well, yes. And even though I wish to see your package, I am not able
to since I am behind a restrictive firewall, and can't seem to check
out from
svn.debian.org since it doesn't have port 443 open for me to
go through the proxy. Of course, checking in is ruled out from here!
So, as you say, if you feel my (debhelper based) package[1] will result
in a lot of duplication of effort, I shall drop it. But I am not in a
position to use collab-maint because of my environment here.
Thanks a lot!
Kumar
